Grindr Rolls Out $500 gAI Subscription Tier

Grindr recently announced EDGE, a $500-per-month subscription powered by “gAI” that adds automated features and premium access. Users and former employees say the move reflects a post-IPO shift toward investor-driven monetization amid complaints about ads, bots, and deteriorating core experience. With roughly 15 million active users and 1.2 million paying customers, critics warn the change may alienate longtime users.
